the next (and 1st female) VP: sarah palin

So, from what I have learned so far, it seems as if I will like Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. Initially is appears as if she is first and foremost a conservative (not a republican). And although she is virtually unknown to a large part of the American population, I think her presence on the McCain ticket will prove to be enormously valuable in the coming months and hopefully, the coming years in McCain's administration. Here's a snippet of what Glenn Beck had to say about Sarah Palin today on his radio program,
"She knows how to run against all odds. This woman ran against not only the Democrat, she ran against the incumbent Republican, and she won. She won against the Republican in the primary and then she won against the Democrat. She has bipartisan appeal. She's a woman, but she's not a feminist. She's a strong woman, but she doesn't hate men. She is so pro life that when the doctors came to her and said, "Oh, boy, you've got a kid with Down Syndrome, what do you say, should we kill him?" She said, "Absolutely not." And she wouldn't allow them to perform any more tests. "We know he's going to have problems; we'll be able to deal with any of them.""
